Beowulf is the longest heroic epic among the English literature which is existed now. Beowulf is one of the old English literature. And the period of old English literature is from the settlement of Anglo-Saxon in England to the Roman conquest. The old English literature is a kind of epic and it used an alliterative form which is easy to convey those poems to other people and remember. And we can see the repeated similar consonant in Beowulf such as fortunes, favored, friends, flocked, followers, and force; barbarous burning; greedy and grim, grabbed and so on. There are also compound words and kenning. Besides, there are ironic understatement and many sentences were described ironically. Though the tradition of paganism is prevailed in this poem, there are also christian ritual which pursuit peace in several places. There are mention of The Old Testament (Noa`s flood, praise to the creation of God) but not the New Testament. We can see many paganish elements. For example, a religious service to the crusade of paganism, the praise to the wealth of this world, creation, the revenge against one`s blood relative and so on. That is, we can know that it didn`t succeed completely to get rid of the paganish tradition. This poem is grave and serious, and there are no romantic elements.
